USA Online Casinos

USA Casinos
First thing to note: most reputable USA casinos use the same software (RTG) meaning they all have the same (200 or so) casino games. So deciding which casino is best for you comes down to the promotions on offer, the customer service and above all, finding the casinos with the deposit and cashout options that suit you.

Second thing: be careful...there are some bad eggs out there! Read on...

With the USA yet to regulate the world of online casinos, it's important that a player from the US knows who they can trust when researching USA casinos to play online. The major land-based casinos have yet to come online, although the 2009 tie-in between Harrahs and 888 to launch teh Caesars brand in the UK is an interesting step forward. Until such a time as laws are passed to create a regulated online gambling environment, the choice of good, safe USA casinos is limited.

This section of Online Casino UK highlights a handful of safe USA casinos that have built up a good reputation down the years for providing fair games, good customer service and play to the American market. You will also find a few of these online casinos feature in more detail in my online casino reviews directory, although to the right are brief highlights of those USA casinos I would recommend.

Here are the casinos that I have played at myself, which take US players and I can vouch for as being safe and fair. All of the casinos listed here use Realtime Gaming software as that is the only one of the top software providers that allow their casino licencees to accept USA gamblers at this time. I have written up a more detailed reviews on Club USA casino based on my experiences playing there, and also iNetBet casino which is my personal favourite of all the USA facing casinos and finally the Intertops casino which switched from the Microgaming platform to RTG in 2009 so it could take back USA based players.

In addition to the casinos listed above, there are a number of USA casinos that have a good reputation on player forums and around the web. These include: It's important for American players to realise that online casinos are not regulated in the USA - the reason why it's very important to ensure you are playing at a safe casino - and also that in some States (Kentucky, Washington etc) online gambling is illegal right now. In some cases (Washington), ridiculous though this may sound, online gambling actually constitutes a felony! So be aware of local laws that may be applicable before you download any of USA casinos I have listed on this casino guide.
